Ι proudly admit to have watched this masterpiece of a movie. The effects and cgi were just astonishing and the SFX sound was... breathtaking. It is indeed a horror film,nothing like what you have seen. The best horror movie I have ever seen. Horror movies like Psycho,The Exorcist,Seven are nothing compared to this movie. Oh, I should mention also the incredible acting... Its just astonishing to watch the lead actor acting the hell out of it. The way he walks and speak... its pure magic. Also, I loved the ecological messenger of the movie: "Don't cut down trees to make toilet paper". A movie you must watch before you die. It is NAWWTTT even a movie. Its a whole experience that's going to alter your life.

"Birdemic" is a notoriously bad film that is currently #8 on the IMDb Bottom 100 list. Surprisingly, the same filmmaker decided on a sequel, as apparently he decided to bring us more of the same because there is an odd cult-like following for this bad film. "Birdemic 2" is currently #34 on the list....so obviously James Nguyen didn't learn much from his previous outing.The plot, for what it matters, is about a couple of guys who are going to make a film. However, during shooting, a bunch of ridiculously unreal looking CGI birds start ripping everyone apart. The 'birds' are about as scary as a sock puppet bird and are sad to look at because of the 1990-quality CGI. Additionally, the acting, direction, editing and, especially sound quality, are just awful. However, the director has fun with it this time...tossing in some obviously gratuitous boobs, an almost funny cameo by a couple of tree-huggers, zombies, global warming and inserting an actor playing himself into the film as a guy planning on using this bird attack as inspiration for an upcoming film. So, while everything about the film is bad, at least the movie never takes itself seriously and appears to be a deliberate attempt to cash in on its being a bad film! Strangely enjoyable for bad film buffs but crap through and through.Retrieve

One of the actresses says it: "Bill, you're a terrible shot". They fire and fire and fire and fire and fire and don't hit a single bird for the longest time. And this is inside a closed building. How did these huge birds get inside the building. And why in the world would any of these people, shooting a movie, have guns? And MULTIPLE of the people standing around had guns. And let's wave an umbrella at them. That will help. And when they hit the birds, they disintegrate! The just blow up without leaving any blood of bodies hanging around.That's just one small bit of a horrible movie. Shy in the world is there no negative rating on this site. The birds just hover. They don't attack anyone. Just hover and seem mean but never dive down and do anything. Oh, wait, they figured out now to dive now. Evolution in action!! Oh, here's an idea, let's use Ju Jutsu on them.This is so bad it is not even good. The birds are still flying but they just stop shooting and the birds disappear. Here's an idea. Don't shoot and they will disappear in the first place.How awful. Really a waste of time unless you want a travelogue of the Universal back lot.

The first film was amazing because it was one of those bad movies that was just fun to watch because nothing about it worked. It got a lot of attention so it was no surprise a sequel was made but when the sequel is just the director trying to recapture the magic of the first film and trying to force lightning to strike twice by doing the same thing all over again but upping the campiness up to obnoxious levels, the end result is just something that elicits annoyance and not amusement.All the things that made the first film fun is back like really, REALLY bad acting, special effects that will make a computer become sentient and weep for how his processing powers were wasted on screensaver looking graphics and editing that looks like it was done blindfolded. However, director/writer James Nguyen decides he's going to intentionally make the film bad and try to parody his talked about first film and, by doing this, completely destroys any and all attempts at making this a watchable movie as he decides to pointless tack on out-of-place nudity, cavemen and zombies...because, why not? The entire movie just stank of someone making a spectacle of themselves in order to get attention. The first movie is the equivalent of a man accidentally walking into a door and the man, and the witness, have a good laugh over the mistake but the man, in dire need to once again get the applause of the witness, now walks into every door he sees to try and make the witness laugh again but, once it becomes intentional, the occurrence isn't funny or amusing. That's "Birdemic 2" in a nutshell. It's a sad attempt at trying to make the viewer have the same fun they had with the first film but doing it in a way that all effort is forced and obnoxious.Hi, my name is Rev.
